Not connected to OMC-B and
Config. file not found
Select Save I&C parameters
Node B commissioning Proc 20: I&C Parameters Verification
I&C Parameters Verification Procedure (Continued)

Step
Action
In the File-name field of the dialog box:

Type the name of the file where the new I&C parameters will be
saved.
NOTE: This name must be equal to new_<NeId>.til with
NeId=Serial number of the Node B.
Click Save
NOTE: The file will be saved in:
<Default path>/[email protected]/Icparam folder.
Open the file new_<NeId>.til
10
Verify the I&C parameters you have entered comply with those of
the report sheet.
(Continued)
Node B commissioning Proc 21: MCA Backup File

Description:
This procedure describes how to create a MCA backup file with the TIL
This backup file must be stored on a customer server and will be reused exclusively in case of maintenance action with a
double fault (MCA and CCM-U failures).
Handover of the MCA backup file to the customer is coordinated by the TPM.
Preconditions:
The I&C parameters verification must be completed.
MCA Backup File Procedure

Step
Action
Select MCA recovery tools
In the MCA recovery tools dialog box:

Select Prepare MCA file on CCM Board
Click OK
At the end of the operation, a success message is displayed

concerning MCA file creation
Click OK
Node B commissioning Proc 21: MCA Backup File
(continued)
MCA Backup File Procedure (continued)

Step
Action
In the MCA recovery tools dialog box:

Select Save MCA file on local disk
Click OK
At the end of the operation, a success message is displayed

concerning Save MCA file on local disk
Click OK
7
Open the MCABackup folder present on your default path to

verify if MCA backup file exists.
NOTE: The number given in the file name must be the same as
the serial number (NEid) of the Node B.
NOTE: The default path is <Default
path>/[email protected].
Send by email the MCA backup file to the coordinator TPM.
=> The Node B is ready for integration

Distributed Node B
Commissioning Testing
Node B commissioning Testing Proc 22: IP Ping Test

Description:
This procedure describes how to test the IP Link with the TIL
This test is not mandatory and is only applicable with an IP Network configuration (Hybrid Iub or Iub over IP)
Preconditions:
The IP link (Hybrid Iub or Iub over IP) is physically connected on both sites.
The IP address of the OMC-B.
MCA Backup File Procedure

Step
Action
In the TIL GUI: Go to Tools menu
Choose IP Ping
In the IP Ping menu

Check the IP Address
to test
Click on Ping
A IP Ping Process window appears

Click OK
A IP Ping test result

window appears
Check that the test
result indicate
in the last IP Ping
Result: is Reachable

Node B commissioning Testing Proc 23: Final Commissioning Operations

Description:
This procedure describes how to perform final commissioning operations
Preconditions:
The Node B has been reset in connected mode
The tests are successfully
Final Commissioning Operations Procedure

Step
Action
Close the Web browser
Remove the cable between Port 1 of the CCM-U and the laptop
Finish filling out the report sheet available in the Commissioning

Test Records section 399
NOTE: All non-compliance cases have to be physically spotted on
site and described
Leave one copy of the report sheet on site and send one to the
coordinator.
Refer to the coordinator for any corrective action.
Clean the site
Now the Node B commissioning is finish and this Node B is ready to

be integrated in an existing UTRAN, according to the UTRAN
version used and following the Integration Procedure IEH521 or :
Alcatel-Lucent Node B UA08.1 Integration in an existing UTRAN
